An interview with my agent
I just came across this recent Wild Child Publishing interview with my fiction agent, Ethan Ellenberg.
This struck me:
WC: How prolific does a writer have to be today to be a successful author?
EE: You need to write at least one very good book per year. More is better.
I can do that.
Can’t I?

Actually, I’ve heard some authors say it gets harder, because you’re always competing with yourself.
I still feel like I’m improving with every book, though.
That seems to be the common wisdom, but I’ve heard some agents dispute it. Can’t hurt, though.
I wonder if I could do it. Does it get easier after the first one?
